PREPARE FOR BEARING REPLACEMENT
1. Remove disc brake rotor
2. Clean wheel thoroughly and prepare a suitable workspace
3. Remove end caps: Easton Cycling end caps are designed to be removed by hand.
Clamping end caps with vise jaws or pliers can damage end caps. A rubber glove can
helpimprovegrip.A12mmblindbearingpullertoolcanbeusedfordifculttoremove
end caps
4. Rear Wheels: Rear drive-side end cap is easiest to remove by pulling cassette/cassette
body/drive-side end cap all off at same time as assembled. Holding cassette and
pushing on spokes is best method to apply force to release drive-side end cap from
axle.
 IfCassetteisnotmounted,grabCassetteBodybyhandandpullrmlytoremoveEnd
Cap and Cassette Body.
5. Locate and remove cassette body 0.7mm spacer… spacer sometimes will stay on axle
against drive side hub shell bearing OR it will stick to inner cassette body bearing
inner race
 Optionalstep:Usesmallatheadscrewdriverandclothtocleandirtandgreasefrom
groove behind the cassette body shield. Use care to not scratch sealing surface or bend
shield.
Optional step: Re-lube (light grease) the drive ring on the cassette body and oil the hub
seal’slip&pawlpockets.Useasmallatbladescrewdrivertogentlyprythesealout
of the hub
6. Inspect hub for damaged parts (cut seals, corroded pawls/drive ring, damaged end
caps, etc..) replace as necessary

BEARING REMOVAL
Front Hubs:
1. Use pick to remove inner seals (note orientation for correct reinstallation)
2. Choose correct drift for removal:
Hub Model Easton Vault Front Hub: 516
Removal Drift Vault 33 - Bearing Removal Drift For Front Hubs With 18x30
Bearings
3. Insert removal drift in rotor-side of axle
4. Hammer drift until drive side bearing is ejected. Use care to safely catch axle as it gets
hammered out
5. Reinsert axle into rotor-side bearing
6. Insert removal drift into drive-side of axle and hammer drift until rotor-side bearing is
ejected Use care to safely catch axle as it gets hammered out
7. Clean hub shell, axle, seals and end caps
Rear Hubs:
1. Using the plastic mallet, hammer the drive-side end of the axle to eject the rotor-side
bearing and axle from the non-drive side of hub shell. Use care to safely catch axle as
it’s hammered out.
2. Flip axle and re-insert short (rotor-side) end of axle through hub shell and into drive-
side bearing
3. Using the plastic mallet, hammer the axle to eject the drive-side bearing from the hub
shell. Use care to safely catch axle as it gets hammered out
4. Clean hub shell, axle, seals and end cap
BEARING INSTALLATION
General notes/warnings :
• Install/Press only one bearing at a time, guiding bearing with 2nd drift in opposite
bearing bore
• Alwaysfullyinstallreardrive-sidebearingrstorforfronthubsrotor-sidebearingrst
• Orient bearings so that red seals face outward
• No grease or Loctite is required in the bearing bores
• Never press a bearing using the stepped side of a bearing drift. Only press bearings with
driftatsidecontactingbearings.
1. Assemble Installation Drift onto bearing press. For Drift 32 that has one side with step
(counterbore),orientdriftsothatfullyatsidewillbecontactingbearingtobepressed

journal on rotor-side. All rear hubs have longer bearing journal on drive-side.
5. Assemble hub shell onto hub bearing press with rear drive side or front rotor-side bearing
bore toward new 1st bearing.

7. For Drift 32 & 35 that have one side with step (counter bore), orient drift so that stepped
sidefacesaxleangeintohubshell(toensurethereisclearancetoaxleangetoallow
1st bearing to fully seat).
8. Place drift for alignment guide onto hub bearing press and into opposite (empty) bearing
bore.
9. Tighten Hub Bearing Press:
  a.Usearmforceonhandlesofbearingpressandmakesurebearingisrmlyseated
10. Loosen hub bearing press tool
11. Remove installation (alignment guide) drift
12. Optionalstep:removehubpresstoolandconrmbearingrotatesw/oanyroughness.
13. *IMPORTANT*HubAxle:conrmalreadyinstalled(allrearhubs+516fronthubs)
14. Check axle for correct orientation
15. Assemble new 2nd bearing onto axle. Red seal faces outward
16. Reinstall Installation Drift
17. *IMPORTANT* Ensure Drift 32 and 35 are oriented so that full contact side of drift is
touching the bearing to fully support inner and outer bearing races during press step
18. Tighten Hub Bearing Press: Use a moderate force on handles of bearing press. Forces
too low or too high can
result in excessive drag and premature wear
19. Removal Hub Bearing Press and all Installation Drifts
20. Conrmbearingsrotatew/oanyroughness
21. Conrmhubaxlecannotbemoved/shiftedsidetosidebetweenbearings
HUB RE-LUBE AND REASSEMBLY
1. Apply a thin layer of light grease to cover the following hub shell bearings:
a.525 Rear rotor-side
b.516 Front: both sides
2. 516 hubs only: Reassemble inner seals - correct orientation is lip pointing outwards
3. Rear only:
 Optionalstep:Usesmallatheadscrewdriverandclothtocleandirtandgreasefrom
groove behind the cassette body shield. Use care to not scratch sealing surface or bend
shield.
Optional step: re-lube (light grease) the drive ring on the cassette body and oil the seal lip
& pawl pockets.
a.Assemble 0.7mm cassette body spacer on axle, between hub shell bearing and cassette
body
b.Assemble cassette body, turning counter-clockwise to engage pawls
c. Apply thin coat of thin cassette body grease to Shimano HG outer cassette body bearing,
for XD, XDR, Micro Spline, and Campagnolo bodies apply and thin coat of waterproof
grease to outer cassette body bearing
4. Reinstall end caps
a.525: longer end cap on rotor-side
b.516 front hub: longer end cap on (Center Lock) rotor-side
